Unfortunately I've seen the plasma ball shot so many times that I'm a bit anaesthetised to this one. I can see what you're getting at but it's too distracting with the pretty plasma stuff.

Good idea, the ball of lightning. Was the reflection of the face on purpose? Very nice shot, congratulations!

Nice capture of the electricity, making one think it's souls in the making. The reflection is also clear enough to make out, yet dream like enough to make me say, "Is he really there?" The soft focus was a great touch.

Great composition. The half-face is positioned perfectly and has just the right tone.

It took me the longest time to see that the ball extends almost to the left side. Really great framing and composition and lighting. Especially the lighting. Good concept, expertly executed. You earned a 10. When you can edit it, darken the spot on his nose.

Well done, the face within the image makes this look like someone who is really working the cosmos. Very cool.

I love the effect of these plasma lamps, this one is also very well done. I used one myself once in a challenge here

This is a very nice shot. The colors combination adds drama making it more dream-like. I also like the way you captured the face reflection in the glass..great job
